I am dutch as everyone know's I am. But I play Football Manager on English so I like to write a Novelle in it as well, fam.

I have played with Arsenal every version from 2014 , maybe even earlier untill FM 21. It's the only club I am true fan of in real life.

I never wrote about it on this forum, untill now. And I am going to do things a bitt different than I usually do.

 

I am now at April 15th in my first season with the club and already like my second or 3th Arsenal save game.

 

And today I am going to talk about and focus on my English lads and players. Not all of them came through the Academy, some were bought like Rob Holding and Calum Chambers.

 

Let's start with the one who has become one of the best players in real life as well, I am talking about Bukayo Saka. This young humble and hard working lad can play at left back, left winger, left mifdfielder, right winger, and maybe even as a Shadow Striker. Unfortunately at the moment in my game he is still injured for 10 days at minimum and 3 weeks at max.

 

 

This season Bukayo has made 24 match performances in the startin XL and 7 as an substitute. Saka in the Europa League has made 3 goals 3 assists, average rating of 7.43. He started 5 times in the EL and has come on from the bench 3 times. Ingame Sake is only 19 years young right now.

In the Premier League the young lad has made 4 goals , 7 assists and an average rating  of 7.12. He started 16 matches and came in on 2 matches. Bukayo on paper is our 3th right winger after Willian and Aubemeyang. I just promised him that his playing time won't change when he comes back from injury. Saka is worth 66 million euro's right now and has a contract untill june 2025. 

 

Next up. He is not worth nearly as much as Saka, but he is surely proven his worth for THE Arsenal. Eddie Nketiah he is 21 years old in game now. Is market value is 26 million right now. Eddie has an average season rating so far of 7.02 he has made 14 goals already this season and 2 assists he started 20 matches in the starting XL and came on as a sub on 8th occasions. Eddie has 18 as quality for both Acceleration and Pace. Only Alexandre Lacazette this season for Arsenal, has scored more goals so far then Nketiah, he has scored 24 times.

 

 

Our 3th and final player for this post didn't come through our Academy. But he only cost the club 2 million back in 2016/2017. He is now 25 and his name is Rob Holding. He has played 17th games so far this season from which 10 in the PL. He has an average rating of 7.19 Rob has 15 for marking and 15 for tackling as well. Dortmund, Leicster City and Lyon have a slight interest in Rob Holding but as far as I am concerned he is staying, and I don't plan on selling him this coming summer. Holding has a market value of 22,5 million euro's.

 

Next Update is going to be about the players bought and sold both last summer and winter. And about our Europa League campaign, so far.

Veel succes met Arsenal, en geweldig dat je het in het Engels doet, maar opletten met de zinsconstructies en de letterlijke Nederlandse vertalingen. Arsenal heeft een topjeugd en er zouden er veel meer moeten door breken naar het eerste.

@Going up thnx maat. Bedankt!! Ik zou er op letten, super!

 

Transfers Incoming

Lorenzo Pellegrini was my only summer incoming purchase. He came for 18,25 mil from As Roma. And what a signing this lad has been! Jolly good. 4 goals, 15 assists in the Premier League alone. Awarded man of the match, 5 times. He can play both central midfielder and central attacking midfielder. Lorenzo played 44 matches in all competitions this season.

 

In the winter Arsenal bought Andreas Christensen for 25 mil from 

Chelsea. He can play central defender, defensive midfielder, central midfielder and maybe even right back. He played 21 Premier League matches for us scoring an average of a 7.0

 

Thiago Almada came from Velez Sarsfield for 15 mil but he has been on loan at Maritimo the last 5-6 months.

 

 

Transers  Players Sold

 

Sead Kolasinac was sold to Atalanta Bergamo for 12,5 mil and with bonuses it can become 15. Mustafi went to Wolfsburg for 8(possibly 10) , Sokratis went to Nice for 3-5 mil. And finally the most important one Mesut Ozil left for Napoli for free , and we are paying half his salary untill this end of june 2021.

 

Europa League

 

In the knockout stage we beated Granada, Feyenoord before getting knocked out by Ajax Amsterdam. We won the first match at home 3-2 (could have been more, but Blind scored 2 goals for Ajax) and in the Arena, we got humiliated by Ajax. We lost 6-1 I wanted to fade away from the dugout, I was really angry. It was a real ** show from Arsenal.

 

Premier League

 

We had a rough patch in 8th place for a while. And right untill last few match rounds it was really tight. We were competing with Chelsea and Leeds United for spot number 4. After we beated Manchester City at home at match 37 1-0 at home, we secured the 4th place so Arsenal is going to the Uefa Champions League, I am so excited. We won 22 competion matches, drew 6 and lost 10. Next season I hope to lose between 6-8 at the most. Have to wait and see. Alexandre Lacazette finished second at the top competition goal scorers table with 18 goals only Karlan Grant from WBA got 1 more, 19. Pellegrini ended up with 15 assists in second place , a bit far behind number 1 Pablo Hernandez from Leeds with 21 assists. 

 

At home we only lost 1-2 against United and Southampton, my personal goal will be next season to lose zero home matches. 

But away from home I am not quite satisfied. With 6 wins, 5 draws and 8 defeats there is a lot more to gain and getting better.

Fa Cup

 

We lost in 3th round against United. Can happen.

 

Some player stats:

 

14 players in the first team have scored atleast 2 goals or more.  And with preparing goals it's even better. 22 players have at least 1 assists ore more of which seven players have 4 assists as more. It's safe to say the Arsenal is an collective guided squad, NOBODY is bigger than the team.

 

Bernd Leno played 37 matches in the Premier League, conceded 41 goals and kept 14 cleansheets.

 

We have 7 English players in the squad who played matches for us, Chambers was loaned out and Matt Macey didnt play. Maitland Niles played a staggering 32 mathces in the starting XL, Saka 26 matches, Nketiah also 26 and Smith Rowe 12.  This coming summer I am going to focus on keeping the lads at the club. Players like Pablo Mari and Xhaka want to leave and that is fine. But if I am going to buy new players I prefer them to be Homegrown/English and 24 years old or younger.

 

I also had some youth candidates which I signed 2-3 of them are 15th and have great potential.

 

 

Sorry this has become a really big update. But the season is finished If I had played on I risked losing the current screenshots

Thnx vriend!! Das goed idee, zou hem eens vragen. Bedankt!

Football is Football, in the end Manchester United always wins!

 

It has been hunting me for bloody years now, it ain't even remotely fair. I play against Manchester United, with me Arsenal and we almost lose everytime. And 90% of the time, we are by far the better team. 

 

The Arsenal was heading for a perfect month of August. Jamie Vardy and Thomas Partey, had a party together against Crystal Palace. We won 3-0 and they both scored, so did Memphis Depay with an absolute beauty of a goal for the 3-0. We ended up with 27 shots, 11 on target, compared to zero shots on goal for Palace.

 

Then we went up winning 1-2 at West Ham United. Lacazette scored the one nill and Thomas Partey the 0-2. It was Thiago Almada his debut for the club in the starting XL as a central midfielder. For now he has 2 stars on that position and 2,5 for CAM. But especially the latter one position he will improve the coming months and years.

 

Next up was Aston Villa at home. We won 4-2, Jamie Vardy and Aubemeyang were having a field day with the Villa defence, they each scored two goals. Edwards and Traore scored for Villa but the result was never in any doubt, whatsoever. Villa had an xG of 0,91, my boys  1,69

 

Away at bloody United they had 4 shots on target and 14 shots in general, Arsenal had 21 shots and 11 on target. Even our xG was better 1,44 over 1,29 from United. How we didn't even scored an honour goal, is beyond me.

 

 

Champions League Draw

 

This wasn't quite the best draw we got. We are going to play Juventus, RB Leipzig and Real Sociedad.  For instance City has got a group of Kopenhagen, Salzburg and CSKA Moscow. But we are going to take it one game at a time and aim for second place or better!

 

Transfers

 

Nick Pope came in from Burnley for 11 mil(possibly 13). I wanted a second capble and perhaps first goal keeper behind Leno. Pickford wanted a rather big salary so we canceled that transfer. Anguss Gunn and Butland weren't good enough in my opinion. And I wanted an English goallie so we ended up with Pope.

 

 

In attack we got Odsonne Eduard for 15,75 mil from Celtic for me that was a no brainer. I have good experiences in FM with him. If it doesn't work out, can always try and make a profit out of him. He can play each winger position and as a Striker.

 

You already know he is at the club. We got Memphis Depay on a free agent. Jamie Vardy 34 years old and our current vice captain came for 2,5 mil from relegated Foxes Leicster City. Vardy has already made 3 goals in the first 4 matches.

 

For the defence we bough Luke Shaw from Manchester United and Nikola Milenkovic from Fiorentina.  Milenkovic has costs us 33 mil and has a modest salary of 37k per week. Luke came from United for 21 mil and is here to make the competition for first left back with Kieran Tierney tougher. And so far he is succeeding with that. He played 4 matches has 2 assists already and 1 man of the match award. Only against his former club Manchester United his nerves were too high and he scored a 6,3 before being subsitueted at half time for Tierney. Quite understandable.

 

League table

 

We are in 6th now but its all real close to each other. Only clubs like Everton and Fulham have yet to slip up.

 

Up Next

 

September is going to be even tougher month. At home we will be playing our rivals Spurs, Red Bull Leipzig for CL and Liverpool . Away from home we will play WBA for the PL, BHA for the Caraboa Cup and Sociedad for the CL.

The Arsenal are on Fire. This update months September , October and November!!

 

September started out rough. We only lost 1-0 away at WBA who are still end november in 4th, really good for them! But the club didn't win much that month either! 2-2 at home against rivals Tottenham Hotspurs which we should have won.  Gabriel scored the 1-0 and Aubemeyang the 2-1. We had an xG of 1,72 Spurs 1,35.

 

Other results were 2-2 at Real Sociedad, lucky 1-1 at home against Leipzig cause of an own goal from Sabitzer. And we played 1-1 against Liverpool at home, which felt like an victory! Lorenzo Pellegrini got a red card with an dirty dirty ugly two legs sliding. Saka scored the 1-0 after only 1 minute. Lorenzo got red after just 10 minutes so 1-1 was really good.

 

October my birthday month(4th, Animals Day) was really good! We won first at Preston North End 5-1 , Eddie Nketiah scored 3 goals. 5-2 at home against Southampton, 3-1 against Blackburn Rovers at home after coming 0-1 behind and 1-0 against Newcastle at home for the 4th round Carabao Cup. We only lost in the CL, 2-1 away at Juventus. 

 

Then came November. We were the better team at home against Juventus xG was 1,26 for us and 1,90 for them. But! We had 6 shots on target they only 4. Vardy scored the 1-0 in the 39th minute. Bonucci scored the equaliser rather late in the 92 minute.

 

In the PL we won 2-0 at home against Manchester City Depay and Aubameyang scored.  2-0 away at Norwhich Memphis scored both goals and also 0-2 win at RB Leipzig. Saka scored the 0-1 in the 80th minute and Odsonne Eduard the 0-2 in the 92 minute.

 

We are in 6th in the PL table with 26 points after 12 matches. Number 1 Manchester United has 35 after 14 matches. If we win both match number 13 and 14th we get to 32 points. That would put as around spot number 4-2.

 

Outgoing Transfers

 

Coming January 2022 Nicolas Pepe will go to Monaco for 20 million. Elneny will join Sociedad for 11,25.

 

 

Incoming Transfers

 

My options at central midfield are quite limited and to be fair I don't think either Niles, Christensen and Torreira are good enough at that position. So Ruben Neves who was transferlisted at Wolves is coming in for 60 million. 30 direct and 30 spreaed over a couple of instalments.

 

 

Next up:

 

December and January and possibly more transfer sales or purchases.

And will we make the Knockout stage of the CL? We HAVE to Beat Sociedad , doesn't matter by how much, just win!

 

 

I am going to mention some of my former followers from a different Novelle

Nahhw topper. Ik dacht niemand meer interesse had. Ben al 1,5 seizoen verder. Je bent geweldig, doe morgenochtend nieuwe update!

A Big Update I didn't think anyone was still interested

 

I am almost two seasons ahead of were I had my last update. So I ain't got the old screens anymore, too far back.

But december 2021 was a pretty good month. We won 4-0 at Wolves, 2-0 at home against Everton, 0-0 draw at home against Real Sociedad. We were by far the better team, which meant we had to further in the EL instead of the CL.

2-0 win against Newcastle. Then we lost 3 matches 1-3 against United in Carabao Cup, 2-1 at Leeds for the Premier League and 1-0 defeat at Chelsea. We finished the month 1-0 wins away at Fulham and Brighton.

The rest of this season was pretty good Premier Leauge wise we lost 5-1 at Spurs 26 of january 2022, 3-1 at Liverpool at january 29, 2022. And that were the last Premier League defeats of this season.

 

Because Arsenal has done it again, since 2004. The name of manager Kyrill Goosseff is in the history books. We won the Premier League with 86 points in the 2021/2022 season with 27 victories, 5 draws and only 6 losses. 1 point more then runner up Chelsea.  In Europe that season we lost in the second knockout round of the EL against Valencia. In the FA Cup we lost in the semi finals against Manchester United 2-1.

 

 

Transfers Winter 20222

 

Ruben Neves came in for 60 million from Wolves. Sergino Dest came in for 9 mil(possible 19,5) from Barcelona. Vilhena came in from Krasnodar for 14 mil(possible 15,75) and Pau Lopez from As Roma for 1,9 mil. It's now may 2023. Sergino Dest has been the first right back for the club for a long time. His first eason at the club he had 10 matches in the PL, 3 assists, 7,20 average. This current ending season 26 matches 3 goals 2 assists and 7.17

Ruben his first season 14 matches 2 assists 6.85. This season 26 matches 7 goals 5 assists 4 times man of the match and an 7.20 average. Vilhenna I am trying to sell which hasn't worked yet and Pau Lopez is now on loan at Watford with possible future fee of 10,5 mil.

 

 

Players Sold Winter 2022

 

Torreira went to Valencia for 27,5 million euro's, Xhaka for 22 to Norwich, Pepe for 20 to Monaco, Mari to Porto for 12,75 and some more players left like Holding, Runarsson, Cedric and Elneny

 

This 2021/2022 season we bought players for 174 mil euro's and sold for 136 mil

 

 

Summary of 2022/2023 season

 

Bellerin was sold to Barcelona for 51 million which is fine Dest is excellent at Right Back. Munoz from Sociedad and De Sciglio from Juventus came in for 0 euro's per player. Memphis Depay also came in transer free he is now worth 65 mil and is 29 years old. His first season at the club he played 32 matches 11 goals 4 assists. This season 25 matches 7 goals 7 assists. NIck Pope our English goallie came in from Burnley for 11,25 (possible 13,5). This season Pope played 21 matches only conceded 9 goals, 15 cleansheets. Last season he also had 21 matches, conceded 25 goas and had 9 cleansheets. Vardy who is retiring in a few months came in from relegated Leicster CIty for 2,5 mil, right now he is 36. But with 15 goals in 25 matches, he was worth having for a while at his old age. Luke Shaw came in for 21 mil and he has played 11 matches this season and 22 matches last season. Fabian Ruiz came earlie this summer from Real Madrid, the ex Napoli and Real Betis midfielder. Fine at CM also at CAM.  Arsenal paid 50 mil from him which can add up to 68 mil with bonusses. He played 21 matches this season in PL with 2 goals 3 assists and 7.02 average.

 

 

Adam Hllozek came in for 75k which is bascially transfer free from Sparta Prague. Alex Meret for 6,5 mil fom Napoli. Alex conceded 17 goals in 16 matches and has 5 cleansheets. Youri Tielemans followed Vardy, we paid 29 mil for him. Victor Tsygankoc came in from Atletico Madrid for 31,5 mil. With 8 PL matches 0 goals 0 assits and 6.94 average he still needs time to adjust. Atleast he wasn't so expensive 80 mil as his  predecessor Nicolas Pepe.

 

 

Sebastian Esposito came in 10,25 mil(possible 12) he is a true wonderkid. I was thinking about him or much more expensive option Darwin Nunez from Benfica. I am glad I chose  Esposito. In 20 PL matches he has 12 goals and 3 assists. And in the CL 4 goals in 5 matches in starting XL and 4 as an sub.

 

Players Sold

 

Leno was sold to Valencia 23.5 mil(possible 32) 

Niles to Juventus for 23 mil

Chambers to Atalanta Bergamo for 18 mil

 

 

Results 2022/2023 Season

 

 

PL

 

37 matches played so far. We have 73 points 22 wins 7 draws and 8 defeats. We have a minimal change of getting place 4. We are 1 point behind Liverpool the number 4. We are ending the season with Chelsea at home and Liverpool are playing as good as relegated team Blackburn Rovers away.

 

CL

 

Highlights:

 

Beating Fc Porto in the group stage 6-2 at home with 5 goals in the second half. Both Memphis and Eddie Nketiah making 2 goals and 1 assist. We also won away at Porto 0-1 which made as secure spot number 2 in the table. We won away at Trabzonspo 0-3 and we lost home and away against Real Madrid 2-0 and 0-1 and at home against Trabzonspor.

 

In the first knockout stage we played against Bayer Munich. We played 1-1 at home and away because of two goals in last few miutes , one in injury time from Esposito we drew 2-2 and went on  through at away goals. In the quarter final we played Celtic who did really well so far. Beating Atletico Madrid before this and finishing 1st in an group with Dortmund and Lyon. Their gaffer Neil Lennon tought they could beat us but they didn't. We won 3-0 at home and played 1-1 away in Glasgow. The semi finals had Arsenal play cup holders PSG and Manchester United play Juventus.  In Paris  Declane Rice scored the 1-0 after only 1 minute. Memphis Depay equalised in the 8th minute for the 1-1. It stayed that way for really  long, unfortunately Marquinhos scored the 2-1 in the 73th minute and Samessekou the 3-1 in the 90+1 minute. 

 

It wasn't an fair ressult. We had 10 shots and 5 on target, PSG 9 and 6 on target, We had 54% balpossesion and xG of 0.83, PSG  0.64. The return at home we played 1-1, this time PSG were the better team. But we played last half hour with 3 defenders, 2 central midfielders, 2 wide players and 3 strikers, so it wasn't for a lack of trying atleast.

 

FA Cup

 

We made it to the Quarter Final which we lost against Manchester United

 

 

Next update tomorrow:

 

Chelsea at home. Will we win against the possible champion? Will Blackburn manage a draw or more against Liverpool, or are we condemed to Europa Leauge football again?

Hoop dat je 4de kan worden en dan volgend seizoen dichterbij de titel kan komen

He Rich. Ik verkoop soms aantal. Maar zeker niet "allemaal" Saka en Nketiah spelen nagenoeg alles. Smith Rowe speelt ook steeds vaker. Nelson en Willock hebben nog zkr toekomst bij club, alleen zijn nu uitgeleend. Maar ik moet verder concluderen helaas dat daar achter met Miguel Azeez, Ben Cotrell ea vrij matig is. Ze ontwikkelen zich amper. Aan andere kant onze - 23 is kampioen geworden dus ik zal komende zomer eens paar naar 1e halen. Mijn duurste aankopen zijn rond 60 miljoen. Maar das echt nog niks, hoor. Chelsea heeft rond 132 miljoen voor Odegaard betaald, United meer dan 100 voor Frenkie de Jong en City en Liverpool ook zkr genoeg van dat soort aankopen. Thnx voor je reactie!

 

 

 

Edit: Ik heb potentie screens op basis van sterren van -23 en -18 gepost

 

 

We lost 1-2 at home against Chelsea and Liverpool won 1-2 at Blackburn. So it's going to be EL this coming season. I added screens from Saka en Nketiah. This summer I am going to try to buy no new players. If some players get sold I try and to get English replacements who are 23 years or younger.

Lekker Karel, wel beetje weinig geld voor Pepe niet dan=

Pepe inderdaad wel beetje goedkoop weggedaan. Hoop dat je de wisselvalligheid er een beetje uitkrijgt komend seizoen. 

 

 

No Champions League. Our Diva players and Vedette's wanted to leave. So they can, they aren't going to be registered!

 

No CL, so Depay wants to leave, Pellegrini wants to leave, Fabian Ruiz wants to leave, Jose Gimenez wanted to leave. Bascially all our valuable players. In 5 days we are starting the new season away at Manchester City.

 

Players Sold

 

Memphis is already 29 and heading for 30 years old. It aint nearly as much as I hoped but he is sold to Inter for 33 mil(with bonusses can add up to 46 million) one the one had he was worth around 67 mil. So it's a bit dissapointing but considering his age and he came in at the club for 0 euro's/transfer free it's still a good sale. Lorenzo Pellegrini played for us for 3 seasons. We paid 18,25 mil for him, he was sold for 63 mil to Atletico Madrid. He was a true Arsenal player with great class, we wish him all the best in Spain and in the CL. Lacazette joined Benfica for 15 milion euro's, Arsenal pays some of his salary. Aubemeyang is already 34, he went to shaktar on an free transfer. Pau Lopez who came in for 1.9 mil and was never supossed to play much, was sold to Levante for 9 mil, so also a good profit.

 

Players Bought

 

Sam Greenwood left in 2020/2021 for 2.2 mil for Leeds United.  Which was before my time. Now he is back at the Arsenal for 8 mil which can rise to 11. 18 year old newgen Gavin Anderson who can play as CV and RB comes in from Sevilla C for 950k. Dani Ceballos 27 year old CM comes in on a free transfer. He knows the club and he will the gaps in midfield in case we get the right amount of money for Ruben Neves and or Fabian Ruiz who both want to leave the club, for not being able to play in the Champions League. Last not least Mexican left/right winger Hirving Lozano still only 28 years old comes in from Napoli for 14,25 mil. He had a salary of 130K a week at Napoli. I managed to get him to agree with us on a lowery salary for 115K a week. So I am really satisfied. Only thing is if he makes in the PL team of the year Squad he will get an 2.2  mil bonus, that's a risk I am willing to take.

 

Summer Break Matches

 

 My assistant does these matches. 1-1 draws at New York City, at Philadelphia 5-1 win at home against Freiburg and 2-0 win away at Galatasaray

 

For the next update:

 

Can Arsenal keep hold of Tielemans, Ruben Neves, Fabian, Jose Gimenez and others? August will be one hell of a month, we play City and Chelsea away and Liverpool at home. Boy, this is going to tough.

In spoiler antwoorden:

 

Spoiler

Klopt @joostmakaay is helaas weinig geld voor Pepe. Heb je gelijk in. Met 80 mil aankoop prijs was winst al onmogelijk maar ik had eigenlijk idd 30-50 moeten vangen. Maar krijg helaas niet altijd wat ik wil in FM. Gelukkig wel 45 miljoen winst gemaakt op Pellegrini en mogelijke 46 op Memphis Depay. @rich ruzzian helemaal met je eens. Ik hoop het ook. Maar niet vergeten we maar net niet plek 4 pakte, op laatste speeldag ging mis. Is natuurlijk geen excuus maar seizoen ervoor werden we kampioen en nu haalden we halve finale CL. Nu moet ik van bestuur CL voetbal halen seizoenen hiervoor was het Eurocup en seizoe dat ik kampioen werd ''top half''. IK ben benieuwd hoelang ik het nog kan volhouden tov top 6 clubs als City, Liverpool, United en Chelsea zonder 100+ miljoen aankopen voor 1 speler te doen.

 

 

 

Je hebt flink gecasht deze periode, wel jammer dat er flink wat spelers wilde vertrekken.

KUTGW 

Flink verkocht idd

 

Rough start , but we had to sell some quality players!

 

I knew it was going to be tough. Starting away at Manchester City, in th Ethihad Stadium. City won easily 4-1, 4-0 at halft time already. At that point they had 6 shots on goal with already 4 goals. After that Esposito scored the 1-0 at home against Liverpool , they were able to make the 1-1 Joa Felix scored it for them.

 

Then came the Chelsea away match. We came 1-0 behind,  Neves scored a free kick for the 1-1 in the 12th minute. Pulisic scored the 2-1 for Chelsea in the 33th minute. In the 65th minute Eddie Nketiah made the 2-2. We had a really great playing period with a lot of chances. But from the 76th minute untill 80th minute, things went bad really fast. It was an absolute horror stuff for me, the players and the fans. Ruben Neves made an awfull vertical pass, which got intercepted by Odegaard, who countered and launched Jesus for the 3-2. Few minutes later Jesus also made 4-2 and not much later Hudson Odoi made 5-2. So with 1 point after 3 matches things aren't going well. I do take into account that we already played City and Chelsea away, so thank god for that.

 

Right now the transfer market is closed. We still have 115 million euro's of transfer budget we didn't spend. In total we sold for 193 mil worth of players and bought for only 122 million. Let's have a look first who came in that you don't already know about. We tried to buy Aaron Ramsdale from Sheffield United so did Chelsea. He choose for Chelsea but the deal fell through cause Sheffield couldn't buy an replacement goal keeper. But we got Kepa from Chelsea for 9 mil. For that kind of money and him still only being 28 years old, that's worth a risk. And he is going to earn ''just'' 90k per week at Arsenal , he earned 170k per week at Chelsea. Speaking of signing for us on lower salary then at your current club! Ladies and Gentleman Arthur! He came in from Juventus for 46.5 mil. At Arsenal he now earns 140k per week at Juventus it was 150k or more per week. Which means I signed 3 players for less amount of salary then that they were already heaving at their old club. And funny thing is no yearly salary percentage rises or percentage of the profit. Just an possible 2 mil exttra if they make it to the team of the year

 

Dominic Calvert Lewin also came in on deadline day. For 43 mil(possible 52) from Chelsea.  He was transfer listed at Chelsea and he is English, so fine with me. 

 

As for outgoing Fabian went to City for 49.5(64 mil) Christensen to Juventus for 23.5(can rise to 36.5 and it will)so that's another profit again. With the bonusses we are still going to make a profit out of Fabian. And Christensen came in for 25 years ago so 36,5 wil defenitely be an profit.

 

We also got some BS bids on Ruben Neves for to be loaned out. But the clubs like Valencia and Atletico Madrid refused to accept an mandatory future fee, so he stayed with us. Gimenez and Tielemans wanted to leave as well but no bids came in for them. Tsychankov or something wasn't happy for not being registered but Gabriel fixed that.

 

Unfortunately Ben Cotrell and Tyrece John Jules couldn't be registered but if you ask me, look at the screens below, they aren't good enough! But as with the youth ! I atended trialist game. And Reiss Nelson, Emile Smith Rose, Joseph Willock, Eddie Nketiah, Bukayo Saka and Sam Greenwood, are all 24 years or younger and English, and they all will play regulary or more this season.

Weet iemand hoe je voor kan zorgen dat er betere jeugdlichtingen door komen? Ik heb trainingscomplex laten verbeteren, youth complex en alles maar de lichtingen die binnen komen zijn erg matig helaas....

@van der Water thnx ja idd flink gecasht!! Ja dat vind ik ook jammer idd omdat ik helaas net geen CL voetbal haalde. Terwijl ik wel halve finale daar haalde en seizoen ervoor ook CL speelde. Das meer dan het Arsenal in het echt. @The Kerfts thnx bro thnx! @komodo25 zeg dat wel ja, idd flink verkocht. Thnx

 

 

Aardige selectie heb je staan. Misschien toch gaan sleutelen aan je tactiek. Je krijgt nogal wat goals tegen

''Kyrill Goosseff will get fired at Arsenal, anytime now''

 

This is a headline I made myself. But it could have been a newspaper headline in this FM 21 save game as well. I tried so many differet things and tactics. Even from other people on this forum, which I normally don't. At the moment my club is in 18th place and it really hurts like hell. I am broken up about it.    We have 1 victory 4 draws and 7 Premier League defeats already. It's insane. And at least 40-50% of the time we don't deserve to lose. Our only victory was a 7-0 at home against Westham United back in September. Its now november 13th.

 

I promised the board that it will look better in 1 month time. But I don't think that is going to happen. Whatever happen I will definitely NOT start a new save game. And just try for any other clubs that comes available. The defeats include 4-0 at United, 3-0 at Leeds, 1-2 at home against Aston Villa and more.

@rich ruzzian hebt helemaal gelijk. Heb ik ook gedaan maar niks lijkt te werken! :'(

oei, dit gaat de verkeerde kant op...

Volgend jaar Championship dan maar! Positief bekijken

Goede transfers gedaan, spijtig dat je het nieuwe seizoen slecht gestart bent. Niet bij de pakken blijven zitten en overschakelen naar een andere tactiek kan misschien helpen.

Ik heb er hoop in dat mijn opvolger dat kan voorkomen!

Thnx maat. Nee blijf zkr niet bij pakken zitten. Zelfs met tacktieken van anderen haal alleen maar gelijke spelen!

 

Ik ga alvast kijken voor nieuwe club

 

EDIT: Ontslagen bij Arsenal. Ik ben met FM al heel vaak ontslagen bij Arsenal. Maar dit is een van weinige keren dat ik het er mee eens ben. Heb van alles geprobeerd maar er werd gewoon niet gewonnen meer in de PL!  Nu opzoek naar nieuwe club!
